On October 24th, Hauk Are Fjeld will discuss how social media drives consumerism and spreads climate skepticism, affecting our ability to combat climate change. He’ll share insights from his research and personal decision to quit social media for a more focused approach to climate action. Learn how your online habits could be influencing the fight for our planet’s future!

In the age of TikTok, Instagram, and smartphones, social media has become an integral part of our daily lives. But as we scroll through endless feeds, how is this shaping our approach to humanity’s greatest challenge—climate change? Join Hauk Are Fjeld, political scientist and climate communicator, on October 24th as he explores the powerful connection between social media habits and the climate crisis. Discover how social platforms fuel consumerism, spread climate skepticism, and lower our attention spans—all of which hinder the global effort to address climate change.

Having delivered over 500 climate lectures and co-authored the book "En klimabok du orker å lese", Hauk will offer unique insights from both research and personal experience. Four months ago, he deleted all social media from his phone—and he’s ready to share how stepping away from screens has reshaped his outlook on climate action. Be part of this conversation and learn how our digital lives influence the future of our planet!

We will have also Gryta Rundt who is an integration and sustainability organization in Kristiansand that unites refugees, immigrants and the local population through food, culture and social interaction. They use ingredients that would otherwise be thrown away. They are the ones who will make breakfast: 

The menu will be: Scrambled eggs, homemade granola, fruit, vegan coconut chia pudding, yogurt, sourdough bread and pålegg (like butter, cheese and homemade apple jam). That's why it costs 100 kr.
